Events include:

A little part of Sissyboy is back with a game-show benefit. As part of Just Out’s Diversions:
How do you take something ridiculous and over-the-top and make it more so? The general recipe calls for nasty sassy drag queens, talent shows or 80s game shows. This overwhelming melee of more than you ever expected from American Idol has all three.

The men of Burlesquire are very cute. They are also very talented.

Beautiful boy burlesque troupe Burlesquire has been heating up stages around Portland for some time now, but they are finally busting out with their first solo and full-length show tomorrow, Saturday the 4th and Hawthorne Theater (1507 SE 39th Ave).
And, as you will come to see tomorrow, when this Burlesquire piece runs in the arts and culture section, I have begun to do some writing for local gay rag, Just Out.

Aside from the fact that Red Cap might not be a terribly safe place to leave an open bar tab it’s a solid venue with just the right amount of indoor and outdoor seating, dancing and standing looking butch and cool watching the dance floor areas. Once you ad lube wrestling, you really can’t go wrong.
